How Red Dead Redemption 2 Changes Arthur Morgan With Player Choice

Red Dead Redemption 2 is known for its realistic world, but one specific mechanic for Arthur Morgan brings it to a whole new level.

By 

Redditor Jetspeed53 shared the cool crossover artwork with the Red Dead Redemption 2 community online, and it received a great response. The concept is simple - it redesigns Red Dead Redemption 2's protagonist Arthur Morgan as if he were a Fallout Vault Boy. He retains Vault Boy's trademark smile, while pointing a gun rather than raising a thumb. It's simple, but effective. The comments in the thread were filled with similar crossover references between the two franchises, such as "You sir are a ghoul," and "The plan... The plan never changes."

Arthur Morgan Recreated As a Fallout Vault Boy

Arthur Morgan is often considered to be one of the best video game protagonists ever, and because of this, the character enjoys immense popularity in the gaming community. This has manifested itself over the years as a bunch of awesome creations based on the character. One gamer even created a handmade replica of Arthur's hat in Red Dead Redemption 2, finding a unique way to bring him into their real life.

Although gamers are still getting plenty of life out of Red Dead Redemption 2, there will come a point where gamers are clamoring for a sequel. The game certainly doesn't feel as though it was released almost six years ago, considering how well it holds up, even against modern titles. While every player will have their own Red Dead Redemption 3 wish list, it will likely be a short while yet before Rockstar is ready to discuss the possibility of a sequel. Grand Theft Auto 6 remains the priority at the studio, and that will almost certainly come first before Rockstar makes its return to the Wild West.

America, 1899. The end of the wild west era has begun as lawmen hunt down the last remaining outlaw gangs. Those who will not surrender or succumb are killed. After a robbery goes badly wrong in the western town of Blackwater, Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang are forced to flee. With federal agents and the best bounty hunters in the nation massing on their heels, the gang must rob, steal and fight their way across the rugged heartland of America in order to survive. As deepening internal divisions threaten to tear the gang apart, Arthur must make a choice between his own ideals and loyalty to the gang who raised him. From the creators of Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption, Red Dead Redemption 2 is an epic tale of life in America at the dawn of the modern age.
